COVID Alert Level 4 - TCC update
We are currently at Alert Level 4
and we're working through what this means for our facilities and services and will update you as soon as we can. But here's what you probably want to know now:
♻️ Recycling and waste collection
These will continue but assisted services are suspended under Alert Level 4. The transfer station is also closed.
👩👧👦Parks and playgrounds
Some park gates will remain locked and playgrounds will be closed.
People can exercise under Alert Level 4 but should avoid spaces where you cannot practice safe social distancing or come into contact with surfaces that may not be sanitised.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.3% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.7% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
